Thanks for the Link, I did read the story. The fact that he was supporting the FED. RES. doesn't in my mind automatically rule him out. Maybe in his position, at the time he was in, he didn't feel like an outside auditor was needed. I don't know what type of internal auditing they have, if it's like the Police then maybe its sufficient. I don't know.
I simply like him, trust him and like that he has the ability to lead and make his points clear. How rare is that, seems our past few leader have had a hard time communicating. He also seems to have strong convictions, not wishy washy...
